I will always wonder what the result of the 1973 NCAA Semifinal game with UCLA would have been if MAC played in that game.

Alan Henderson was a real gem.
I remember the day he chose IU over Duke.
A program is lucky to have a player of his abilites play for four years.

Alan Henderson was a real gem.
I remember the day he announced his decision to come to IU over Duke.
You can only hope to recruit a person like #44.

I started to watch Indiana basketball in 1967. I was nine years old.
My first game was the Michigan game on Feb 17, 1967. A 98-92 win for the Hoosiers.
My favorite IU team was the 1972-73 Hoosiers that went to the 1973 NCAA Final Four.
The top ten IU players I have selected are those I watched play for the Cream and Crimson. All the following players also used their eligibility.

#1 Steve Downing....... 47pts/25reb game with Kentucky in1972. Played the game basically on one leg.

#2 Steve Green............ First Knight recruit Green and May were the best forwards I have ever seen on the same team. The 75 team was the best College Basketball team I have ever watched.

#3 Mike Woodson........ Had a great feather touch shooting the basketball. I really enjoyed his bank shot. The bank shot is a lost art.

#4 Kent Benson ....... The big fellow fit the middle. Had a great sweeping hook. This shot is also from long gone days. http://www.ioffer.com/i/37868366

#5 Ray Tolbert I remember the comments that he would not last a week with
Coach Knight ! A reat athlete. http://www.ioffer.com/i/37031781

#6 Randy Wittman ........ Had a great floor presence. http://www.ioffer.com/i/37031781

#7 Alan Henderson ......... A real gem for four years.

#8 Calbert Cheaney ..... Got a lot out of his abilities http://www.ioffer.com/i/49677851

#9 Damon Bailey ... .. Coach Knight should have let him run the team the first day of his career. I think Coach Knight never got over Damon's popularity. The irony is that Coach Knight started that popularity when Damon was in eighth grade!!

#10 Steve Alford.......Got a lot out of his abilities! A real Indiana gym rat. We need
more of his types on future Hoosier teams. http://www.ioffer.com/i/49677851

I like your list and also agree in bringing back Coach Knight.
All Hoosiers including the current administration in B-TOWN should
bury the hatchet with Coach Knight.
Coach Knight should be brought back when the new practice facility is completed and have the building named after him.
Coach Knight always did say that he would rather practice then play a regular
scheduled game!

The interview was from Milwaukee where Crean is visiting.
Coach Crean discussed the limitations of the recruiting issue.
Of course he could not mention any players by name.
He did discuss the outing of past players and managers
in French Lick later this summer.
Interview was only 15 minutes long.
Nice of the blog staff to alert the Hoosier Nation on the interview!

I believe he is the head coach in Minnesota for the T-Wolves..........With any list you are going to leave people out that is my personal vote for 10 greatest players, I love Guyton and Whittman and Moye and Edwards. I knew I would leave some out, and I know that many people have personal favorites, but I do like Whittman, just not top 10.
